Mikkeller Single Hop Series

Today's photo features the full lineup of the Mikkeller Single Hop Series and was submitted by Robert Rizzolo, the winner of our Brooklyn Brewery Beertography Contest back in November. If you're unfamiliar with the idea of a Single Hop Series, it really is just what you'd think it'd be. Mikkeller uses the exact same malt for every single beer but then each beer only gets one variety of a hop added to it. If anyone out there is studying for the BJCP Exam, these beers are a great way to familiarize yourself with the aroma and flavors of individual hop varietals.

Robert said that this was how he spent Christmas with his brothers. I highly approve. Thanks for the photo Robert!

Sidenote: How do YOU pronounce Mikkeller? I've been saying it "mih-keller" but lately I've heard both "MICK-uh-ler" and "mee-kuh-ler". Thoughts?
